| Abstract | Visual perspective-taking (VPT) is an important social function. The temporo-parietal junction and inferior frontal gyrus are known to play a major role in VPT, but the neural mechanisms are unclear. It is difficult to reveal the mechanism underlying VPT because it is associated with many functions, such as self-other control, vestibular function, and interoceptive sensitivity. Recently, a large amount of data has been accumulated using new experimental techniques. In this paper, we discuss neural mechanisms that enable VPT based on the free energy principle from the perspective of embodied cognition. |
